Jamela Villanueva, the former non-showbiz girlfriend of actor Anthony Jennings, has opened up about their breakup, sharing allegations of infidelity involving Incognito co-star Maris Racal.

“I’ve been trying to hold myself together through everything that's been happening. But after hearing all the things being said about me, about my character, my intentions, and even my family — I can't stay silent any longer. It's been deeply painful, and I know it's no longer just about me. It's about protecting the people l love most, and I can't allow them to be dragged into this,” Villanueva wrote in an Instagram story.

During the press conference for his upcoming ABS-CBN show, Jennings confirmed that they had ended their relationship months ago, citing "personal reasons" and stating that he would not disclose further details out of respect for their privacy.

However, on 4 December, Villanueva took to Instagram stories to expose the alleged cheating between Racal and Jennings. She wrote, "I'm choosing to let go of the weight of these rumors. I'm choosing peace for myself and my family, and I hope you can respect that too. To those who have stood by me and continued to support me, I am forever grateful. I hope this helps you understand where I'm coming from."

Villanueva alludes to being attacked by fans, saying “It's painful to be attacked by others when all l ever wanted was to protect my personal life — and to protect him out of respect.”

She then proceeded to upload screenshots of Racal and Jennings’ conversations, some of which reveal the Incognito stars’ late night calls and flirty messages.

“I did have my suspicions na which nagatungan pa when I saw her birthday post. I checked his phone while he was sleeping and saw that the night they separated at the airport, they had texted each other saying how much they would miss each other. Sakin pa umuwi nun si Anthony from Italy trip,” Villanueva said.

In September, Jennings asked Villanueva to make her social media accounts private after Racal’s birthday post went viral.

“He told me that they were going to stop things na between them as long as I made my account private and stayed quiet. But even then, they couldn’t resist each other. He even assured me once again na magiging okay din ang lahat,” she said.

However, that same night, Villanueva discovered that Racal and Jennings continued their infidelity. The two exchanged photos, to which Jennings replied, "Train pa lang happy na."

Villanueva discovered even more photos of Racal and Jennings appearing to kiss.

“These were the photos that shattered my heart into pieces. This is the other side of the story — the photos that she posted in her story, where people started attacking me, saying that the photo was just "fan service" and that I was overreacting. I even asked Anthony about it, and he brushed it off, saying it was nothing.”

Villanueva said she tried to give Racal and Jennings the benefit of the doubt. She ended things with Jennings as peacefully as possible, which is why she shared the TikTok reposts.

“For nearly 7 years I'm so grateful for you being my rock, my best friend, and most especially my partner. The memories we've shared over those years are the ones I will always treasure and remember. I know I've loved you enough to make you feel that way, and I could never think of anyone who would make me feel the way you do. You're my first in so many things, and I'm glad I got to experience them with you.

“I know we've had our ups and downs, but l also know how much you've taught me through it all. Thank you for being there for me through the hardest times in life. You've brought a life into mine that I never thought I could have, and for that, I'll always be grateful. Happiness was all I ever wanted for you, in our years of living together. I never imagined l'd have to let you go, but I did — so you could grow and find happiness on your own,” Villanueva wrote.

She then proceeded to ask women who are in the same situation to “gather strength to put yourself first and protect your peace.”
